Kansas - Johnson County Park and Recreation District

The Outdoor Happiness Movement is proud to have Shawnee Mission Park as its Kansas project! Shawnee Mission Park is a large 120-acre lake park with many things to do like swimming, archery, disc golf, mountain biking and hiking trails and equestrian trails. Johnson County Park and Recreation District lead a team of local families and health professionals to design an inclusive playground. This means children who experience cognitive, physical, sensory, sight, sound, or other impairments can play safely and with less obstacles. We’re told the OH! Movement funding will be used to finish the fencing, landscaping and rubber playground surfacing. Once this new play area is complete, residents visiting Shawnee Mission Park will have one more activity to enjoy at this expansive park.
